K-Lo And The Bishop

The festivities at the Supreme Court today apparently attracted, along with the usual scrum of impassioned activists that always arises over a contentious public issue but, also, on one side, a corporal's guard of no-hopers possessed of very few of the elements of what many of us would call "a life." Naturally, when one of those erupts, we go to the blog's veteran no-hoper stringer, Kathryn Jean Lopez.

Families gathered on the mall after marching to the Supreme Court to insist that the Court at the very least leave the future of marriage policy-making to the people rather than judicial fiat. Speakers from the National Organization for Marriage, the Heritage Foundation, Concerned Women for America, and others were in an encouraging mode. One got the sense that this was but a beginning of a conversation, a bit of a wake-up call. In his remarks, Bishop Harry Jackson, a popular Pentecostal minister, among others, made the case that an ideal can have a healing effect on a culture. And families need it.

His popularity aside, Bishop Harry is, as you might expect, somewhat overripe on this particular topic.

Maryland-based carpetbagger Bishop Harry Jackson appeared on the radio show of Minnesota hate preacher Bradlee Dean to declare that gay marriage is part of Satan's plot to "destroy our seed."

Now, if K-Lo wants to sign on with the General Jack D. Ripper of Methodism, she should go right ahead and do it. But I really don't think "families" need to hear Bishop Harry talking about "our seed." I'm not sure I need to hear it, and I get paid for this stuff.
